A few amazing suggestions!
A few suggestions:
1. If your holding down the mouse button, then touch the side of the screen, Docky should NOT unhide. This way, for example, if you are dragging a scrollbar that is at the edge of the screen on the right side, Docky won't pop out and cause unnecessary interference. If i happen to be stopped scrolling right where Docky is, i have to move the cursor out of the way and back just to re-hide Docky.
2. Another cool feature to add would be that if you are moving the mouse pointer and it grazes the side of the screen, Docky will NOT unhide unless the mouse pointer speed is low enough or stopped (similar to OSX's functionality). This is another way to minimize Docky's interference. Sometimes I'm reaching for the back button in my maximized browser at the top left of the screen and graze the edge of the screen on the way up and Docky pops out unnecessarily.
3. Add the ability to enable, tweak, or disable the above feature settings (and for as many others as possible too) in the "Docky Configuration" window. :)
4. Load the icon cache ahead of time (when Docky first unhides. and keep it loaded?) instead of when you are surfing through the icons. Sometimes, after not unhiding Docky for a small while, if you unhide Docky by touching the edge of the screen then moving your cursor around to make the icons zoom, the animation will be a little bit choppy because I guess it's loading the larger graphics or whatever it's doing. Have that loaded and keep it loaded so the animation is always smooth, or at least load it right before Docky unhides. It might take a split second longer for Docky to unhide, but it'll be hardly noticeable and the animations will always be smooth like OSX.
5. Again, the more setting you allow to be tweaked in "Docky Configuration", the better! :D
